Updates:
17th of Janyary:
Hey, guys! I'm so pleased that the last chapter is up! I've been waiting, as have you, for nearly two weeks and then it got even more complicated. But now its over, and I submitted the first chapter of the third story into the queue, and hopefully it'll be up really, really soon!
14th of January:
The Alternative Universe category is still having trouble apparantly, and the mods took out my first chapter to the third story probably because of what's going on. Sorry you guys can't read the last chapter. I was hoping we would be done with the second story by now, but unfortunately we're not. I guess we're gonna have to wait until this blows over.
12th of January:
I recieved an email saying that the last chapter was validated, but when I checked the site to say that the story is complete, I realized that there is a problem with the story, which is probably due to the hacking. I sent in the first chapter to the third story, but I may take it out of the queue so that you can read the last chapter to the second story first.
Note: if you wish to read the last chapter it is on fanfiction.net. THe title of the story is the same. Well, I hope this is cleared up soon.
8th of January:
Unfortunately, the final chapter of the installment was rejected for a small, tedious reason. So I just edited it and put it back in the queue. I hope its up by the end of next week. Anyway, Happy New Year!
18th of December:
Hey, guys!! Thought I'd let you know that Chapter 43 was rejected, so it might be a few more days before it's up. On a good note, I finished my first semester at the university I attend! Now, I have over a month off to write both fanfiction and my own work, so I might soon be done with the third installment (which so far has nearly 30 chapters). Yay! I hope you have enjoyed the second story!

Everywhere Else Is Full by saveginny417
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Sure, the tales of the Trio are great, and I'm not denying it. But what happens after the end of their story? Death, deception, and disagreements, to name a few things. Join Cora Potter, along with her best friends Olivia and Drew, during their first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry- and I can guarantee that you will never see the HP universe the same way again.
Chapter eleven is being painfully slow, isn't it? I promise to have it done by the time the queue reopens!
Date: 02/12/06 Title: Chapter 4: Unknown Forces
i wonder what the letter says! *ponders* update soon. ~Sara
Author's Response: Like JKR, i have the advantage to know what happens next! don't worry, my english homework has finally become lessened, so updates will come much faster soon! five is proving a lot easier to write than 4 was! thanks for reviewing again!
An Exercise in Pointlessness by lunafish
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •
Summary: Snape has some unfinished business with Dumbledore.
Submitted by lunafish of Ravenclaw in response to the extra credit challenge "Letters to Heaven." Posted before DH.
Date: 12/25/05 Title: Chapter 1: An Epistle to Dumbledore
Amazing! I loved every bit of it. it sounded exactly like Snape. And it showed all the worries he would have after killing Dumbledore and ebign sentenced to death. I like that he wrote a letter to Dumbldore, though he's dead, hoping that someone will find it and read it. Briliant!
~Sara
Author's Response: Thanks so much for reviewing! It would be cool if someone found Snape's letter, wouldn't it? Even if only in death, redemption would be nice.

~Sara
Author's Response: Thanks, Sarah! I'm hoping beyond hope that Snape will be redeemed, but since that doesn't look too hopeful right now ... well, I had to give him a chance to speak. I'm so glad you think I captured his voice! ~I trust Snape!
Date: 02/07/06 Title: None
good chapter! i enjoyed it. update soon. ~Sara
Date: 01/23/06 Title: None
oooo, lovely!!! absolutely great!! i luv how its in first person point of view. although, i don't know who's point of view it is. that, i'm sure, you'll tell us in due time. 10/10!
~Sara
Author's Response: Thank you!! And yes, you will fing out in due course, but not for a while...
Date: 01/23/06 Title: None
i like the "Barthon and co." thats good. still can't really igure out who the person is, who's point of view it is. maybe a teacher or caretaker of some sort. or a ghost? just guesses though.
~Sara
Author's Response: No, it's not a ghost! And thanks again for reviewing!
Date: 01/23/06 Title: None
a ghost, perhaps? yes, i'm still guessing. i don' know!!! oh well. that was good. but very sad. dumbledore has no friends and gets bullied-thats horrible!
~Sara
Author's Response: Yes, but that's life I'm afraid. And like I said before, it's not a ghost!

pleeeeeeze update!!! i'm dying over here. ~Sara
Out of the Fire by LuckyRatTail
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Straight after the events of HBP. As Snape and Malfoy make for the exit, the latter has second thoughts. He remembers Dumbledore's words in his desire to escape the wrath of the Dark Lord. Darkness, confusion and a lot of rain.
Extract:
"However," the terrible voice resumed in a tone constructed solely of icy menace. "You are young. Too young to understand. No matter how far you go, no matter who you stay with or where you hide - if you run from me I will find you, and when I do you will pay."
Final chapter up! COMPLETE
Date: 02/26/06 Title: Chapter 7: The Brink
wow! great chapter! there's got to be a reason why hermione would save draco in the hospital. i'm sure that will be told in fututre chapters. 10/10!!
~Sara
Author's Response: Yeah, there is a reason - don't worry it will all be revealed soon. Thanks very much ;o)
Date: 01/11/07 Title: Chapter 15: The Task
I'm so glad you updated!!! It was an excellent chapter!! The formatting of the actual paragrpahs was difficult to read since there were only three large paragraphs, but nonetheless it was well-written. You described Draco and his situation very well! I can't wait to see what happens, and whatever ending you choose, I'm sure will be the best. ~Sara
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I don\'t know what was wrong with the formatting, but I think I\'ve fixed it now, that seems to happen all the time when I submit stories for some reason. Thanks again.
Date: 06/29/06 Title: Chapter 13: Him
Oooo!! Really good. I actually felt sorry for Draco. I could feel what he felt. Those shivers and the want to run. Excellent writing!! Keep up the good work! ~Sara
Author's Response: Thanks so much - glad my writing feels realistic ;o)
Date: 06/25/06 Title: Chapter 12: Masks Off
Loved the chapter!!! A bit shirt, but still good!! I love you you made us to believe that it was Hermione when it wasn't her at all. Is it Bellatrix Lenstrange? ~Sara
Author's Response: Thanks - I know, I am sneaky that way. Yes, it is Bellatrix Lestrange, well done ;o)
Date: 05/04/06 Title: Chapter 9: Unbidden Revelations
I guessed something like that had happened to Ron. He seemed depressed and he was always close to his family. Good chapter! I liked it!! ~Sara
Author's Response: Thanks for the review ;o)
Date: 01/16/06 Title: Chapter 1: Hell to Pay
you describe things very well. i really got an image in my head. good job! i'll defintly be reading the others chapters. and if they are really amazing, i'll review them. you write really well. defintly keep going.
~Sara
Author's Response: Thank you very much, you are very kind. ;o)
Date: 01/16/06 Title: Chapter 2: Into the Suburbs
no offense, but i doubt that Moody can see through walls and not see through simple fog, but okay. i really like it!!!!!!
i hope he gets in the car!! that would be intersting, since he's always hated muggles, and now they are helping him. good twist. luv it!
~Sara
Author's Response: Thank you very much. Funnily enough, I was thinking the same thing about Moody when I wrote that chapter, which is why I added the lightening - I just thought I needed a way to make him disorientated so that Draco could escape, but I do see your point. Thank you for letting me know what you think, criticism is very valuable. Glad you're enjoying it!
Date: 01/16/06 Title: Chapter 3: Nemo
u got some things about the car confused. if they are in engladn then they would be driving onthe opposite side of the road then in the u.s., which would mean that when draco got into the car from the sidewalk, he would be behind the driver, not the passanger. but in the story he was behind the passanger, which is incorrect. and then later in the chapter, draco looks out the window to the left, but if hes behind the passanger seat then he would look to the right to look out of the window.
just wanted to clear that up. srry. i just sort of notice things in writing. but i really liked it!!!!!! omg. really good.
~Sara
Author's Response: Thanks for the review. I think you might be the one a bit confused, mate, sorry. I am British, and I know that the passenger's seat is on the left side of the car. Because Brits drive on the left side of the road, the driver's seat has to be on the right. The cars are different over here. Anyway, thanks again.
Date: 01/16/06 Title: Chapter 4: The Headline
ooooo. its getting really good. where will he go now? will he change his hair color? i have no idea!!!! and thats why its really good!
~sara
Author's Response: Thanks my perceptive pal.... let's just say you're somewhere along the right track. Glad you're still enjoying it, thanks again!
Date: 01/16/06 Title: Chapter 5: An Arduous Declivity
i think its good, not wierd or odd at all. i have no idea what that bite is, but i like the idea of it. but what the hell is it, thats what i want to know!
~Sara
Author's Response: Thank you for your kind words of confidence. Yes, the bite is very mysterious, isn't it? Mmh, I wonder what it is...
Date: 02/07/06 Title: Chapter 6: Mother
really amazing chapter!!! your so good at writing, its unbelievable! but why would draco not know abou the Order? he probabaly would have fighting for Voldemort against them. but its your story. ~Sara
Author's Response: Thanks very much for the review. I suppose Draco was never important enough for Voldemort to reveal everything to him, which might include about the Order. But thanks for the letting me know what you think ;o)
Date: 06/18/06 Title: Chapter 11: Misplaced and Salvaged
Good chapter!!! I love the way you described Draco's surroundings. And the feelings and thoughts seemed so real. Keep up the good work!! By the way whats the tube? The subway? ~Sara
Author's Response: Thanks very much for your review, and your comments on my description (which I rather pride myself on). The tube is the subway, yeah. Thanks again.
